When Wesley was a child, he lived in a mansion in the city, so he was very familiar with the imperial capital.
After the two entered the city, Wesley took Ye Li to the front of the Yaxi family's mansion quickly according to his memory.
The Yaxi family's mansion is very huge. According to Ye Li's estimation, this mansion is at least three times the size of the Ye family's.
There were six or seven guards standing at the gate of the mansion, and their cultivation was actually at the Lingdan stage, which was really extraordinary.
After all, being able to use spiritual elixir-stage divine masters or combat spiritual masters as gatekeepers is not something that ordinary forces can afford.
Wesley and Ye Li had already dismounted and walked to the gate of the Yaxi family residence.
"I'm Wisliaksi, this is Ye Li, we're here at the call of our family."
When the guard heard Wesley's name, his expression changed slightly. After looking him up and down, he said, "It turns out to be Master Wesley. Please come in. We have been informed in advance that you will be back soon.
Please let us take care of the horses, and I will send someone to take you to see the Duke immediately."
The Duke of Wellington was Baron Mars' uncle, Axis Wellington, also known as the Duke of Wellington.
After Wesley nodded, he signaled Ye Li to leave the horse to the guards. He and Ye Li followed the guards and walked into the family mansion.
Wesley hasn't been back here for many years. When he was a child, his father was still alive. At that time, he and his family were the favorites of the family, and no guard didn't know him.
But now, he needs to report his name before entering the courtyard. Things have really changed.
Just as the two were about to enter the house and waved goodbye, a young man with high cheekbones and a horse face appeared at the family door. He was startled when he saw Wesley, and then showed a look of disgust on his face, saying: "It's really unlucky that I met an annoying guy as soon as I went out.
Wesley, you still have the nerve to come back to the family, don't you think you haven't caused enough trouble to the family?"
When Wesley saw the other party, his expression became somewhat ugly. At this moment, when he heard the other party's provocation, anger appeared in his eyes and he said, "Chris, when did I, Wesley, bring harm to the family!?"
The horse-faced young man called Chris snorted coldly and said, "Even if you didn't bring disaster to the family, your damn father did.
If he hadn't been so arrogant back then, we wouldn't have suffered so much in that battle, and the clan leader would have been cursed by the empire. This is all your father's fault, don't forget it."
Hearing Chris's words, Wesley gritted his teeth and said, "My father has already paid for his mistake with his life. What else do you want me to do
I tell you, I came here today because of the family's call. If you question the legitimacy of my coming here, go ask the clan leader. "
Chris was a little surprised to hear Wesley's words. He didn't expect that Wesley was summoned by the family.
“Humph, the family summoned you here, not to deprive you of your Yaxi surname, right
In my opinion, you should have all been expelled from the family. Expelling you from the list of core members is too light a punishment."
Chris said indignantly.
Ye Li heard the conversation between the two people nearby, and his mind couldn't help but recall his childhood, when conversations of this nature often occurred.
"Chris, don't go too far. I haven't done anything wrong. How could my family deprive me of my surname
And what happened back then was a decision made by the clan leader and elders. Who do you think you are to dare to question them?"
Wesley said.
Chris was stunned for a moment. He naturally did not dare to question the clan leader and the elders. He could only sneer and said, "You still like to use the elders as a shield as always. You are really a waste..."
Just as Chris was about to say something else, a gray-haired old man suddenly appeared not far away. He stared at Wesley for a moment, then greeted him with a happy expression: "Is that Wesley? Why are you back?!"
Hearing the old man's voice, Wesley's face showed surprise, then joy. Without caring about Chris, he turned his head and looked at the old man.
"Second Grandpa, why are you here!?"
Wesley smiled and shouted, the person who came was the patriarch’s second brother, Evans Yaxi.
Hearing Wesley's voice, Chris froze, glanced at the old man behind him, and hurriedly saluted, "Second Grandpa, you are here."
Evans was looking at Wesley with joy at the moment. When he heard Chris's greeting, he immediately smiled and nodded, saying, "I came out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet Wesley. It was really a surprise."
After he finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Chris, but turned his gaze to Wesley and said, "After not seeing you for so many years, your strength has not declined, and you are already in the late stage of the gestational period.
You have grown into a big boy, your father should be relieved now."
When Wesley heard Evans' praise, his face was full of smiles. He said, "I am far worse than my father was back then. Second Grandfather, I want to go see Great Grandfather. We came back this time because he summoned us."
Hearing Wesley's words, the old man was stunned for a moment, then he said: "Well, I heard about that incident. I didn't expect that you were so lucky that you could actually solve the secret.
Mars is a talented guy. Although he doesn't have the same cultivation talent as your father, he is very outstanding in both commanding the army and handling official business.
Oh, by the way, why didn't Mars come back? He always wanted to return to the family."
Wesley smiled and said, "After all, my uncle is a man of fiefdom. According to the rules, he cannot come back at will unless he is summoned by the family."
Evans nodded when he heard this, then waved his hand to drive away the guards, saying, "Come on, Wesley, I'll take you to see Big Brother. I didn't take good care of you when I was out there, but I won't do that this time."
Hearing the old man's words, Wesley showed a touch of emotion on his face.
His second grandfather had always loved his father very much and had always found it difficult to come to terms with his father's death.
At that time, he was away handling family affairs and had not returned for a long time. When he came back, he found that the younger generation of the family he admired had died, and Wesley had been driven out of the imperial capital. Because of this matter, he and his brother had been arguing for many years.
Hearing that Evans was going to take Wesley to meet the Duke of Wellington in person, Chris didn't dare to continue to pester Wesley here.
He seemed to want to say something but stopped himself from saying anything. There were some things he really didn't dare to say in front of Evans.
Seeing Chris turn and leave, Wesley's expression returned to normal. This was not the first time he had experienced provocation and insults from family members. Now he was just reminiscing about the past.
